Obama has said main reasonable things over the years, the problem is he doesn’t follow his own advice...

The left marched off a cliff in the 90s... Obamas election hid the problem.... and let them continue their delusions

If all you’re doing is casting stones, you’re probably not going to get that far.

The Kenyan from Indonesia recognizes that Americans are sick of being pelted with stones.

It means if you say or tweet something that the left finds offensive then they will do everything in their power to get you fired from you job and ostracized from society in every way possible.

Literally out to destroy a persons life if they don’t like their opinions.

Obama realizes the left is in the process of turning into a circular firing squad—and he would be one of the victims.

"When Barack Obama talks, everyone listens."

Ridiculous assertion.

...Obama's $90M Netflix deal (?) has a lot to do with it....he needs less radical
people to watch his shows. Probably parlaying this into an even bigger deal....

Right as rain....he does NOTHING unless he gets paid.

Moreover, I suspect the $90M figure is Netflix's suck-up to his massive ego rather than an actual payout.

ValJar fed those lines to him, no doubt.

Purpose is to blow smoke up the voters’ shorts.

His eagerness to dismiss one part of what happens when young people stand up for what they believe in as “casting stones” is a reminder of a largely generational divide

If defense of free speech and tolerance of ideas different from one's own is in fact divided by generations, then the question becomes "how and why did American boomers raise a generation of fascists?".

Fake news. Will they ever learn?
